History

The Bonallack Trophy is a biennial international match between 12-player teams from Europe and Asia-Pacific, inaugurated in 1998 and named after Sir Michael Bonallack, a distinguished amateur golfer and influential figure in the sport. 

The format mirrors the Ryder Cup, with three days of foursomes, fourballs, and singles matches, and is played alongside the Patsy Hankins Trophy for ladies.
